    Great topic! I am 5 foot 5 1/2 inches. I started MFP in May 2012 weighing 225 pounds after seeing this picture.

  • I'm 5'7 and started in July 2011. I was 213lbs and am now 147lbs, with a goal of 136lbs.

    Have a look at my profile photo (or add me as a friend and look at my album to see lots of before and afters).

    MFP is amazing!! I just started a public facebook page to share my success and to recommend MFP to others! www.facebook.com/beingthisgirl

    Good on your for taking this step, you'll feel great sooo soon!

    I'm 5'7" and 130. I don't have any current pics, but the ones in my profile are of me at about 140. I like to stay around 135-140, but due to a recent illness, I dropped down a little lower than my goal weight. I look good anywhere between 130 and 145, though.

    No progress pics for me yet cuz I've only been logging for a month or so but I have lost 9lbs!

    SW- 209
    CW-200
    GW-150? I haven't decided yet. My lowest was around 165 so I'm not sure how I'll look at 150

    You look amazing! I'm also 5'6.5". I started about a week and a half ago, lost about 3 lb, and can't decide whether to make my goal weight 120 or 125, but your pictures really inspired me!
    Where did you start seeing your weight loss first? Did you incorporate any cardio/weight training? Would love to hear your weight loss story!!

    I'm new...what does it mean when people write bump in their comment? Does it somehow save it for them to look at later?
  • lorettaasmith
    lorettaasmith Posts: 418 Member
    Yes. Once you have commented on a post, it shows up under "My Topics", so people write "bump" just as sort of a placeholder so they go back and look at it later.

    when someone puts 'bump' not only does it move the post back up to the top of the message boards, but it will leave that post in their feeds so they can go back and see it later without having to find the thread again.

  • Age: 25
    SW: 189 - March 2012
    CW: 139.6 - August 2012
    GW: 130

    I started losing weight after gaining ten within three weeks due to birth control. I had weighed around 175 - 185 for the previous ten years. I went off the hormones and committed myself to losing the weight while getting all of my best girlfriends as well as my family involved.

    My original goal weight was 145 but, after reaching the goal, I realized there is a lot of fat that still needs to be toned and gone.

    I am 5'6" and will turn 50 in April. I have a hard time posting pictures here but I have updated pictures in my profile. I reached my halfway mark 8 days ago. I started at 224 and currently weigh 185. I want to have another 15 LBS off by Christmas and the remaining off by my birthday. If I can do this, anyone can!
